What is plastic injection molding?
Plastic injection molding is a technique commonly used to manufacture a wide range of plastic components. The molding method has been around for many years and is today one of the most widely used methods to manufacture plastic products. It is fast, efficient, and versatile. Furthermore, it can produce a large number of identical products with high precision and uniformity without becoming extremely costly. At FL Plast, we specialize in using injection molding to manufacture closures and lids with durable and food-grade plastic, which can range from very small parts, such as components for hearing aids or wristwatches, to large-scale elements, such as ship hulls. Only the machines and the production size set the limits. Every home is almost guaranteed to have something made using plastic injection molding.
How is plastic injection molding performed?
The injection molding method is performed by feeding material into a screw, whereafter it is melted down using electrical heating. A large range of plastic materials can be used for this method of molding, one of the most common ones being thermoplastic. After the plastic material has been melted, it is injected into the hollow of the mold being used. Here the plastic hardens and adapts to the shape of the mold during the cooling process. The method might seem simple, but to ensure quality and durability, it is a complex process that requires the right experience, skills, and, not least, high-quality equipment. At FL Plast, we can provide support from idea to execution.
